:6018: A few weeks ago I was asked to design and make a bear for Pringle of Scotland, it was to be auctioned for Children in Need along with bears from other design houses like, Henry Holland, Liberty, Katie Hillier, Mulberry and Louis Vuitton to name but a few. It had to be made from grey Pringle Cashmere jumper fabric, which was a little tricky to work with. He wore a perfect little cardigan with real diamond buttons and a matching eye patch and blankie.
All of the bears were auctioned through Vogue and all bids were finished at 9am this morning. I am pleased to tell you that Christie Bears bear for Pringle, raised £3,545 the only bear that raised more was the one by Louis Vuitton and that raised an incredible, wonderful, unbelievable £35,600 wow. :6018:
